Assigning a trunk port to a VLAN
A trunk port supports multiple VLANs. You can assign it to a VLAN in interface view.
When you assign a trunk port to a VLAN, follow these restrictions and guidelines:
To change the link type of a port from trunk to hybrid, set the link type to access first.
To enable a trunk port to transmit packets from its PVID, you must assign the trunk port to the PVID by using the port trunk permit vlan command.
